Thirty strains of microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, fungi and green algae) were tested as resting free cells for their ability to transform acetyldimethylphenylsilane (1) enantioselectively into (R)-(1-hydroxyethyl) dimethylphenylsilane [(R)-2]. The biotransformations were monitared by GC (packed OV-17 column), and the enantiomeric purities of the products isolated were determined by HPLC (cellulose triacetate column, UV detection). All microorganisms tested were found to reduce 1 enantioselectively to give (R)-2. Under the test conditions used, the yeast Trigonapsis variabilis (DSM 70714) was found to 1 exhibif the highest specific activity (1.5 mg product x g cell wet mass\(^{-1}\) x min\(^{-1}\) ), whereas the highest enantioselectivities were observed for the bacteria Acinetobacter ca lcoaceticus (ATCC 31012) (>95% ee), Brevfbacterium species (ATCC 21860) (90% ee) and Corynebacterium dioxydans (ATCC 21766) (>95% ee), the yeast Candida humico la (OSM 70067) (90% ee), the fungus Cunninghame lla e legans (ATCC 26269) (94% ee), as well as the cyanobacterium Synechococcus leopoliensis (94% ee).· From the green algae tested, Chlamydomonas reinhardii showed the highest.enantioselectivity (85% ee).
(SiR,CR)- and (SiS,CR)-t-butyl(l-hydroxyethyl)methylphenylsilane [(SiR,CR)-2 and (SiS,CR)-3] have been prepared by (R)-selective microbial rcduction of racemic acetyl(t-butyl)methylphenylsilane (rac-1) using resting free cells of the yeast Trigonopsis variabilis (DSM 70714) or the bacterium Corynebacterium dioxydans (ATCC 21766). The biotransfonnations were carried out on a 10 g scale. Afterseparation by column chromatography on silica gel, the optically active diastereomers (SiR,CR)-2 and (SiS,CR)-3 produccd by T. variabilis were obtained in good yields [74% ((SiR,CR)-2). 78% ((SiS,CR)-3)]. The products obtained from the reduction with C. dioxydans were isolated in significantly lower yields [20% ((SiR,CR)-2), 20% ((SiS,CR)-3)]; reaction conditions not optimized). Both bioconversions gave products with high enantiomeric purities (T. variabilis: 91% ee ((SiR,CR)-2), 96% ee ((SiS,CR)-3); C. dioxydons: ~ 991 ee ((SiR,CR)-l), ~ 99% ee ((SiS,CR)-3)). To throw light on the stereochemical aspects of these biotransfonnations, an X-ray diffraction study was carried out on the 3,5-dinitrobenzoate of rac-(SiR,CS/SiS,CR)-3. In addition, 1H NMR spectroscopic stereochemical correlation studies were performed with the (S)-MTPA esters derived from (SiR,CR)-l, (SiS,CR)-3, rac-(SiR,CRjSiS,CS)-2 and rac-(SiR,CSjSiS,CR)-3 [rac-(SiR,CR/ SiS,CS)-2 and rac-(SiR,CS/SiS,CR)-3 were obtained by reduction of rac-1 with LiAIH\(_4\) in diethylether, followed by chromatographic separation of the diastereomers on silica gel]. These stereochemical studies allowed assignment of the absolute configurations and enantiomeric purities of the biotransformation products.
Starting from chlorodimethyl(phenyl)silane (3), acetyldimethyl(phenyl)silane (l) was prepared by a two-step synthesis in a total yield of 90% [PhMe\(_2\)SiCl (3)-> PhMe\(_2\)SiCCOMe)=CH\(_2\) (4)-> PhMe\(_2\)SiC(O)Me (1)]. The prochiral acetylsilane 1 was transfonned enantioselectively into (R)-(1-hydroxyethyl)dimethyl(phenyl)silane [(R)-2] using plant cell Suspension cultures of Symphytum officinale L. or Ruta graveolens L. Under preparative conditions (300-mg scale, not optimized), (R)-2 was isolated in 15% (Symphytum) and 9% yield (Ruta), respectively. The enantiomeric purities of the products were 81% ee (Syrnphytum) and 60% ee (Ruta), respectively.
